The Book of the American Indian, by Hamlin Garland, copyright 1923, first edition, Harper & Brothers, New York & London. Illustrations by Frederic Remington. Front flap: "Hamlin Garland and Frederic Remington enjoyed long years and friendly association with the Indians of the West. Few men living know the Red Men of our plains and mountains better than Hamlin Garland. His stories here are both humorous and dramatic, and all have the value of sketches from life. Frederic Remington's pictures, of which three are in color, are a fitting accompaniment for the stories. They are not so much illustrations of the text, as an independent and parallel interpretation. The book is a memorial of the Indian by two men who knew and loved him." Hard back, brown, 270 pages. Tears and chippings to paper dust jacket.Price tag of $5.00 on front flap of dust jacket, and written small in pencil upper corner first page. Black and white illustrations. Gold gilt on spine.
